Cant see Worky pulling 20pts back at Derwent Park, would take a monumental effort.

Back to the meet tonight, hope its a good match for all concerned and a safe night for all the riders. Get well soon Richard Lawson, hope he is fit to take his place on Saturday night.

Just read he has a British Passport.

Well done Robert Branford, surprise winner, also big well done to the two Comets Kyle and Ash.

Do not have any info but it would be a good idea to have some buses running from Cardiff, would sure boost the numbers at Somerset.

The return match is on Saturday night, hopefully we (Comets) can keep it close at Ipswich who are packing a strong team.....50-40?

I can only see Newcastle being stronger when Andrew Tully comes back from injury.

Solid display from Newcastle, Worky did well to keep it respectable as it looked like a thumping at one point!

Hope Millsy s ok the guy has ben great for Comets this season.

51-39

Why , one point defeat away from home, as with the League and in matches its how you finish not how you start!!

Good effort by Workington, a good team performance.

The re starts did not help either side, seems like ref's interpret the rules in their own way. Newcastle are a strong side and will be even stronger when Andrew Tully returns as his r/r points only totalled 5pts. Lewis Kerr is a great prospect and could prove to be the Diamonds improved rider that helps them towards League success.

Agree with the prompt start times, keep the meeting flowing if possible and the interest up. I know its not always possible with re starts and falls, etc but it can only be a good thing to have a definite start time, especially in the cold weather we have been experiencing lately.

Many fans in the PL giving teams/riders stick this early in the season, PL has not even started yet, some people need to get real...........but they will not.

Well done Redcar!

Well done Worky, phew that was close.

A bit cloudy now....

10 miles from the track, 11 degrees blue skies and sunny.....

:lol:

Probably not...............

BBC weather has a dry day up until 6.00pm then rain, hope they have got it wrong!

Worky will hope to bounce back from their one point defeat at Redcar on Thursday night when they take on the strong looking Diamonds side in this League cup match.

Started off well with a win and looked on the pace, worth persevering with.
